Fellow history enthusiasts,
As a docent with Museums of the West I often ask students for their definition of “history.” The response is usually something like “the past” or “things that happened a long time ago.” They’re right, but we try to flesh out that definition by adding “it’s the story” of our community and ourselves.
The Mesa County Historical Society has been committed to preserving “our story” for the past 50 years, and we need your help to continue for 50 more.
If you have a passion for the history of the people and places of Mesa County, join us, won’t you, with your ongoing membership and active participation in the coming year.
Sincerely,
Joe Zeni
President MCHS
